Student Organizations
Looking to join a student organization?
One of the best ways to get involved at Penn State is to join a student organization. With over 1,000 recognized student organizations, there are plenty of opportunities to find something to connect with and our Involvement Fair is a great place to start.
If you would like to start your own student organization, you can find out how to do that at Penn State as well!
Student organizations have proven to have a significant impact on college students' experience. Student organizations offer opportunities to learn, engage in multiple communities, and of course, have some fun.
